Spinnaker Mens 40mm Croft Mid Size Automatic Watch with Leather or Stainless Steel Srap SP-5100

This is a lovely retro diver watch, I only sent it back because I just could not get on with the Cyclops on the date, I just don't like them, but I thought as it was small it wouldn't bother me, but it did.Pros:Beautiful dial and watch case finishGreat strap "waterproof" leather - not sure if it is, but it feels different, high qualityReliable Seiko movementLovely sapphire crystalgreat proportions on wristGood lumeGood bezel actionQuality materials and build all-roundOriginal design - not a straight "homage" of anythingCons:It's a bit "thick", which is not helps by the back cover which domes out a lot... if this was more flat it could be 1mm thinner easily.Didn't like the cyclops on the date.. many diver watches don't have this anymore.

Love my new spinnaker, feels quality and looks great too, the box didn’t have an instruction manual so had to look online to find out how to set time and date as wasn’t like my previous watch, but figured that out pretty quick, only other thing is it doesn’t have a window to see working parts on rear, photos online suggest it did have so that was a bit disappointing too, other than that great watch

I bought this as it has a plain face with nice easy to see hands. I am slowly losing my sight and was finding my old watch difficult to read. This watch has solved that problem. A bonus is that it does not require a battery. I'm fed up with batteries that run out at the most inopportune moment. The leather strap is nice and sturdy so it shouldn't weaken and break after a while. The only downside is the date 'window' which is pretty useless. The watch would be better without it. Otherwise it is a great watch. I doubt I will be swimming in the future so I can't comment on the waterproof aspect.

Rattly chain, dial doesn't pop. Much better looking / value watches at this price point.
